First sentence: IN the consideration of organic beings, we must ever keep before us the great fact, that life is as much life in the monad or animalcule, as in the whale, the elephant, or the rhinoceros-that mass does not add intensity to vitality-that duration of existence is but an infinitesimal portion of time, whether it be counted by minutes or days, or measured by the revolutions of centuries.
